One thing is for sure: this one isn't recommended unless you're into the genre. The movie itself feels like something of Peter Jackson's old works, judging of the splatter, the camera work and the neatly applied effects. The plot didn't really catch me and there were a few moments which I just found plain boring here due to the lack of action. At the same time I have to admit that there were some scenes which made me choke of laughter. What about a crazy cow facing her death through a baseball or a different approach to drive-by's with swinging bats chopping off zombie heads. Now that's some joy I tell you. The Irish accent tops it all.

That movie is not funny, not horrifying it's a total mess.I don't care if it's a low budget movie they could have done better. Usually i'm easily satisfied by horror movie but that one totally suck. Guys eaten by cow, a zombie in a rolling chair, a guy loose his eye suck by a vacuum and a girl who killed zombie with her shoes. Did i smoke something bad ??? Don't loose your precious time and if you want a good zombie flick, watch something else!.There is ton of other movies of this kind in the world. Maybe the author want to pay an homage to the other film he like, but that one is a pale copy of the originals.I just hope they don't plan to make a sequel....

This looked horrible, really amateur style. They tried to be creative but it just looked bad like it was shot on a handycam in 2003. The audio was nominally better, but still dull and horrible music. Really basic 'special effects' that were supposedly frequent, strong and bloody. Completely unoriginal and unimaginative amateur zombie film with dire acting and an almost non-existent script. Very difficult to watch all the way through. It wasn't even remotely entertaining.

It attempts to be the Irish "Night of the Living Dead" but is much more akin to being the Irish "Plan 9 From Outer Space".

There is nothing in this movie that approaches being competent.

It is paced, written and acted at a level usually associated with bad science fiction movies of the early sixties. The only advantage that "Dead Meat" can boast over it's cinematic precursors is the fact that it's shot in color.

In addition to those problems, the special effects were poor to put it mildly. The makeup budget appears to have come in at around 20 or 30 Euros.

It may gain a cult following as has "Plan 9" and "Robot Monster", but unless you enjoy those movies "so bad that they're good" you should avoid this movie.

This was a great movie. Obviously shot on tape this normally brings problems technically to viewing pleasure, combined with some performances that had great weakness one might be led to thinking that you were viewing another straight to video rubbish film. However quickly the dimensions of the character and the inventiveness of the director with his choice of camera set ups led to an exciting and dramatically interesting film in which one had interest and emotion invest within unlike many bigger zombie films with far greater budgets as was sadly the case with Land of the dead. To be highly recommended for those who not only like gory and inventive horror but also to those who wish for greater depth within the film.

If a film like Romero's 'Night of the Living Dead', which was made on a paltry budget, can still be effective 40 years later, how on earth could anyone even remotely think this is even a 1% decent flick. It's 100% ineptitude in my opinion. To say anything else would be criminal. And yes, I watch loads of sh#t from drivel to Lake Dead to excellent ones like REC. This was closer to Lake Dead than I would've liked.

What was the Irish Film Board thinking? The script must've totaled about 3 pages.

I don't care that they had no budget or that the 'gore' effects were cheap looking, or that the actors were painfully bad & extremely non-emotive. None of that matters to me. I love low budget films. But the least it can be is to be entertaining. It failed miserably. Did any of the people involved sit in on the editing to even try & salvage it. Just watch the end credits & see how the cast & crews names appear twice. To extend the length past the actual 74mins of the film itself.

Just look at Peter Jackson's 2 debut film Bad Taste. Even then you could see that he was a born filmmaker. I see no evidence with the director work with this film, It added nothing to the canon of zombie films.

I've read the other comments that seem to rate this from average to above average & I am spellbound by them. Were they watching a 10 minute edit of the film? Oh the editing. Yes. Good point. Where was the editor? Scenes that should have made a point within 1min took 10 minutes to play out. There was no sense of dread, atmosphere, fun, nothing. I thought it being Irish it might have been a different & maybe even a ridiculous take on the genre, but alas, it was as bad as any straight to video release that 100's of Americans make each year. The Aussie film 'Undead' had no budget, but at least it had some style & verve. This was so frigging dull.

And you can stop with the usual 'let's see you make a film' comments. Boring & predictable. I did the filmmakers a service by watching the damn thing. They failed to deliver. I am making a few comment. Simple as that. I could squish a pimple & get more sense of drama, gore, thrills from that than I received from this film.

A young couple accidentally run over a pedestrian in rural Ireland. If we didn't know from the opening shots or advance publicity that this was to be a zombie movie, we are soon left in no doubt. Comments on the car radio about mad cow disease dispense with the 'how' problem quite efficiently and the rest of the movie just gets on with being a nice gory tribute to the genre with plenty of Irish humour thrown in.

The pedestrian gets up and walks after being run over, then attacks the driver. Helena heads for a cottage, fights off more zombies, teams up with another 'normal' human, fights off more zombies, finds someone with a mini-bus, fights off more zombies etc. You get the idea. Generally speaking, originality is not the strong card in Dead Meat – everything is recycled, from moons going behind clouds, to scary castles, to ghoulish faces coming out of the bogs silhouetted by torchlight, creepy crawlies on a plate of food or a decomposing body, to the story line itself and final denouement. Dead Meat's winning streak is firstly that it uses the classic elements in a way that is almost deferential to films like Bad Taste, Evil Dead and Night of the Living Dead, secondly that it is well edited to be genuinely scary, and thirdly that it uses heavy doses of inimitable Irish humour.

Much credit goes to Conor McMahon who wrote, directed and edited the film on a budget of about £125,000. One of the leading characters, the mini-van driver who is described as 'slightly normal', is very memorable as a the sort of jovial Irishman who picks an argument with everyone first (living or dead) to decide if he likes them. I also enjoyed the (at times rather 'home-made'-looking) special effects - these rarely missed an opportunity to show the variety of horribleness portrayed by different zombies or hacked off body parts. For sheer entertainment, Dead Meat is a must for horror fans. Other audiences may have problems with the poor sound quality on some of the voices, the Irish accents (dialogue is not too important but adds to the humour), or the unashamed purveyance of formula, but for an aspiring young director, the signs from this first feature are good.

What can I say, DEAD MEAT is excellent. The first true Irish Horror film sets a high standard for all future Irish features to live up to.

A wonderful blend of genuine thrills and over the top humour, DEAD MEAT manages excellently to satisfy all the viewers needs. First and foremost, DEAD MEAT is a film made by horror fans for horror fans. This is what makes this film such a genuine treat.

The basic plot revolves around a cow suffering from mad cow disease breaking out and attacking a farmer. This leads to a new strain of the disease that once infected turns everyone into flesh eating Zombies. The film follows a group of stranded folk and there efforts to make it through the horde of Zombies and make it to safety.

Plot aside, this film succeeds where many other imitators failed due to the fact that it doesn't take itself overly serious, but at the same time refrains from falling into the trap of lame slapstick. This is the directorial debut of Conor McMahon and his work along with the Irish Horrorthon founders, Ed King and Michael Griffin shows a genuine eye for what made all the classic horror films so good.

A mixture of modern humour with the style and atmosphere of classics such as Night of the Living Dead and the many 70's Italian Zombie films this film is guaranteed to delight any fan of the genre (or just enjoyable films in general). Another worthy note is the music which shifts from an eerie score to at times a John Carpenter-esque style. Over analysing the film would only take away from the pure fun and entertainment that this film embodies,

Destined to be a cult classic, Get it, watch it and ENJOY IT!!!

What can i say, i watched the movie, and it SUCKED. It was a really waste of time, do you call "this" funny, i think the concept of funny its far away from this, funny its something that makes you laugh, not something that makes you hate everything in life, like this movie did...

So to complete my 10 lines, which this movie doesn't deserves, ill just say a few things: Porn actor, bad "dunno who they are" actors, bad camera (omg!), bad story, bad effects, not funny, bad storyline, bad acting, bad smell and bad taste (yah, i got that after watching this movie.)

This film had some good potential but just sort of fizzles out instead.Oh this movie was close to being one of the good ones.

The story takes place in Ireland which provides some good horror film locations---castles,woods,isolated cottages and the dark gloomy countryside itself.And they were all used but just not that well.The movie is about a few folks fighting off flesh eating humans and cows,yes cows,after a really bad strain of mad cow disease infects both cows and humans.Right off the bat I'll just say the zombie cows were just silly.Didn't work at all.There were also several silly scenes that just didn't ring true,for instance,one of the surviving women fights off a zombie by throwing her shoe and sticking her high heel in it's head.Now what are the chances of killing a zombie like that in real life? Well you know what I mean.

But on the plus side are some really good fight scenes with the zombies and some good gore and blood. This movie was on the verge of being really good several times and just didn't get over the hump due to weak areas in the plot and those silly mad cows.

I'm really disappointed in this film,I'd rather a movie completely suck than be so close to being good and not quite making it.

Say what you like about writer/director Conor McMahon's debut, but he knows his walking dead movies from the entrails out.

This loopy, atmospheric and gore-splattered low budget tale set in rural Ireland about mad cow disease jumping to humans and turning them into gut-chomping zombies is teeming with references and visual nods to a dozen other movies.

But whereas Shaun Of The Dead stuck largely with George A Romero's canon, McMahon's clearest inspirations are the brooding autumnal landscapes of The Living Dead At The Manchester Morgue, the invention of The Evil Dead and the unhinged splatstick of Peter Jackson's Brain Dead.

The tonal shift between horror and black humour isn't always smooth but McMahon and his enthusiastic cast hurl themselves into it with gusto, whether dwelling gleefully on the obligatory slippery red zombie picnic or ratcheting up the tension for some genuinely harrowing moments.

This movie was made with a low budged and some actors should learn to speak English better because i did not understand almost nothing ! It attempts to imitate some classic movies with undead people but it fails to rise at the minimum quality of the most classical movie. I hate when movies like that are made. Also, I do not understand how some movies like this one are rated so high ? Is it because some kids seen it ? The lines of the actors are also bad. I hope that future movies with undead people will be made more scary and some cool special effects will be added. Resident Evil is kind of cool but it has the same rubbish in it like this one.

If you ever wanted to see a low-budget shot on video flesh-eating zombie movie that takes place in rural Ireland, Dead Meat is for you! The director moves his camera around constantly; as a result, it's shot with more style than most SOV flicks. The zombie make-up is passable. Gore FX are good and plentiful, but the idiotic comic book way the heroes kill some of the zombies knocks the film down a peg (such as the heroine throwing her high-heeled shoe into the eye of a zombie). There are some major inconsistencies in zombie mythology: The heroine bites a zombie on the ankle to get it to let her go -- why isn't she infected? Why does the zombie react to such a minor wound? Many zombies use weapons (yet none can figure out how to break into a car), and one runs away to avoid getting killed! Dead Meat alternates between taking itself too seriously and not seriously enough. This ends up being its major flaw (that and sometimes the accents are so thick you can't understand the actors). The film is jam-packed full of zombie action so you won't be bored. I'm looking forward to seeing the director's next film; he shows a lot of promise. Dead Meat is definitely worth a look for zombie and low-budget horror/gore fans, as well as anyone interested in low-budget film-making. DVD includes the director's cool short film Brain Eater, trailers and a making of.

This film begins with a farmer being awakened in the dead of night and upon going outside to check it out is subsequently attacked and killed by one of his farm animals. The scene then shifts to a man named "Martin" (David Ryan) and his female companion "Helena" (Marian Araujo) driving on a road in the Irish countryside when suddenly a man appears right in front of him. Unable to stop, the car slams into the man and kills him immediately. Naturally, being quite upset and not knowing what else to do, both Martin and Helena pick up dead man and put him in the back seat so that they can deliver him to the nearest hospital. Unfortunately, they don't go very far when the man suddenly attacks Martin and while doing so bites him in the neck. Although Martin manages to fend off the attack and eventually kill his attacker, he quickly becomes quite fatigued which causes Helena to walk to a nearby cottage to ask for help. Not long afterward, however, she is viciously attacked by Martin and, even though she manages to escape unharmed, she soon comes to the realization that something terrible has happened and it will take all of her resources to simply survive the night. Now, rather than reveal any more, I will just say that this film started off really well and I thought it might turn out to be better than I initially expected. However, my hopes were soon dashed as the film became less and less interesting due to the fact that each scene was so similar to the one before it. It was extremely one-dimensional. Throw in an awful ending and I have no other option than to rate this film accordingly. Below average.
